Images of Text

Images of text are graphical representations, including logos, banners, and headings. Where the image contains text, these are often used in web design, marketing materials, and other digital media. Instead of actual text, designers will create an image of the text and embed it in the design.

Even if there's readable text in a picture, alternative text is still needed to accompany these images for them to be understood. Here, we tailor alternative texts that express the same message as the image and are curated to convey the same message.
